Hello,
first, sorry for my Bad English...
So here is my Problem:
Bought S3 in Germany, also CSC = DBT
I flashed Omega V5.1 then i wanted back to origin Firmware, so i used TriangleAway and then flash the original Firmware with DBT (Downloaded it here in the Forum), now the Firmware is on the Phone, but KIES say it is not supportet...
KIES show CSC = EUR
How can this be? I flashed DBT, i can not change it with *#272*imei#, because there is only EUR to select
CAN PLEASE ANYBODY HELP ?!?!?
I recently wanted to change my csc to make my s3 updatable via KIES. Found that if I flashed to the UK (BTU) stock, when I did *#272*imei#, it presented me with many more options than my actual carrier stock.
I used to have an ATL CSC (Vodafone Spain) and I flashed my phone with the German firmware. After flashing it, I still had the ATL CSC but I did a hard reset and now it's DBT. So, I recommend you to do a hard reset but bear in mind you'll lose everything you have: SMS, contacts, etc.

Hi,
I have been struggling for a while to get my Tab back to a factory state. I flashed the KI1 stock rom but it is an Italian Rom. I then tried to flask KG7 which again was an Italian rom, so I changed the CSC using a CSC changing app from the Android Store, which successfully changed the CSC to XEU (UK).
The problem is that now when I try and connect to Kies it says that this version of the tab can't be updated (I guess this is because of the way I changed the CSC). I would REALLY appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction of an official UK Rom for the P7500, so that it can be updated in Kies. It is causing me a real headache!
Thanks
Surely someone can help out with this? I just need a stock UK rom that can be updated using Kies!
not sure if this helps ...but sammobile has a list of firmwares to download, you could try the version you had before you upgraded to KI1
http://www.sammobile.com/threads/328-Samsung-P7500-Galaxy-Tab-10.1-Firmwares.
I had a version of KG7 - I tried flashing that one from samfirmware, but the CSC was Italian. I changed the CSC to XEU (UK) which worked, but the tab couldn't then be updated in Kies.
im one step behind! Flashed to KI1 and wanting to change.. I shall watch this post!
i have GS3 on UK three, I flashed stock XXALF2 with multi csc "BTU (UK) Also contains CSC (CPW DBT ITV KOR XEF XEO) using CF-Root 6.2 & odin
everything went fine but my CSC was still showing as (H3G) so i changed my CSC using *#272*imei# to BTU but when my phone reboots it changes it to KOR! how can i get it to stay as BTU?
in the end i had to resort to this

but id still like to know the cause of the problem if anyone knows?
Hi, first post, but have been using all the helpful info from the forums for 6 months now with my TF201, this is related to my new i9300. I'll try to be as descriptive as I can:
Black i9300 purchased last week in the UK, but currently has the TGY (Hong Kong) CSC code. I tried flashing to the UK JB ROM on Sammobile but came back with an unknown CSC error. Fair enough. I followed some instructions i found to get to BTU CSC code:
Flash back to BTU ICS
Flash BTU CSC package
Use Galaxy CSC changer to select BTU
Reboot, now with a fully working ICS build, and BTU CSC (I9300OXAALF2).
However at this point i wasn't able to find any official OTA updates and Kies told me that my device was not compatible with kies updates.
Flashed the original JB UK ROM I downloaded and now i'm back with the unknown CSC.
Any ideas? I've already tried flashing the CSC package onto JB and that's not worked, so now i'm really stumped. As far as I can tell i've removed all HK CSC codes from my device as it was happy as BTU with ICS...
Thanks
Hey guys,
I have a New Zealand Samsung S3 GT-I9300.
It's got no branding on the phone, no logos, no logos on startup etc and I didn't buy it from a Telecom, 2 Degrees, or Vodafone store so I assume its unlocked. I bought if from an electronic store called **** Smith.
It's on the Telecom network - just chucked in my Telecom SIM.
OS - 4.0.4
AP - 19300XXALF2
CP - 19300XXLF2
CSC - 19300NZCALF1
At the moment when I plug the phone into Kies, it gives me the message "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to firmware via Kies".
After doing some research and troubleshooting steps like making sure Kies is up to date, reinstalling drivers etc I saw that some people said that if your CSC is wrong Kies won't upgrade your phone.
I realised that Jellybean hasn't been released for NZ yet but I figure that Kies should be saying something along the line of 'You have the latest firmware..' instead of saying its not supported.
So I was just wondering if my CSC looks fine for an unlocked NZ S3.
Let me know if you need any more information.
Cheers
My S3 is unlocked from Parallel on Vodafone NZ had the same CSC with no problems. I wouldn't worry about it much you can always flash via Odin.
If you are worried about it, flash the stock rom via Odin and use the BTU CSC that's what I've done, I have had no issues with it at all, and it's updated itself all the way up to 4.1.1 OTA with no problem.
Also, have you rooted the phone? If so it can report that you are unable to update via Kies

Thanks for your reply and advice
My phone isn't rooted.
BTU is UK right?
Couldn't I just change the CSC instead of flashing another ROM?
This will void warranty right? Don't really mind but just wondering out of curiosity.
Cheers
Mine isn't rooted either. You don't need to be in order to install the rom through Odin.
BTU is in fact UK
You can try to change the CSC first and see if that works, keep in mind it's going to wipe your phone when you do so.
It should not void the warranty, as you will still be using a default stock official rom, most people load the stock official when sending it in for repair work
By the way, the stock rom I used was the one listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610 from May 13th :
I9300XXALE8 Download (Thanks To SamMobile!)
Base Firmware: I9300XXALE8 (4.0.4)
Region Europe
Country: United Kingdom
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 13 May 2012
Modem: XXLE8
CSC: OXAALE8
Change List: 554452
I then accepted OTA updates on the phone directly to get it up to the current rom

Thanks for that!
I'll give that a go.
Thanks
Just by coincidence my phone updated to Jellybean 4.1.1 via OTA a few days ago without me having to flash another stock ROM on it.
Also, Kies now reports that I have the latest firmware.
Looks like all I had to do was be a bit more patient.
Everything seems to be in order now.
Cheers for your help anyway guys.
Hi Folks,
I have a question regarding debranding / updating my S3 (4.1.2)
This is all new to me and with the wealth of information here and elsewhere online I'm a little unsure about the correct files to use.
My S3 was originally on O2 Ireland and it has been unlocked so I can use it on Vodafone Ireland.
The phone is on 4.1.2 and Kies and OTA firmware update both state I have the latest firmware.
So now curiosity has gotten the better of me and I want to manually update to 4.3, and while I'm at it, I want to debrand and just have a stock firmware.
Reading online says the Switzerland firmware is stock and bloatware free.
These are the details...
PDA: I9300XXUGNA5
CSC: I9300AUTGNA1
MODEM: I9300XXUGMK6
If I flash with these, is that all I need to do to debrand and have the latest firmware?
There is a 4.3 Vodafone firmware on Sammobile so I suppose I could use that if the Swiss one didn't work.
As a noob to flashing, ROMS, Odin etc etc I appreciate any advide or guidance.
Thanks
Ciaran
No stock rom is debloated, they all have tons of Samsung rubbish included.
Any firmware for the i9300 will work, just make sure the included modem will work in your country. Usually anything European is fine but you may lose OTA due to wrong CSC.
Current phone details are...
AP : I9300XXELLA
CP : I9300XXELLA
CSC : I9300O2IELL1
Hoping for some more advice!
How do I know if the csc is correct?
This is the Vodafone Ireland file,
I9300XXUGNA5_I9300VFGGNB1_VDI
and the (more generic?) Swiss file,
I9300XXUGNA5_I9300AUTGNA1_AUT
I know the Swiss file won't have any branding, but don't know if the modem and csc settings are correct.
The Vodafone one on the otherhand will have the correct settings but lots of VF bloatware and branding.
